"What? Why did this even happen? Why did you do that?"
"Hey, maybe if you paid attention, you wouldn't even be posting this review in the first place."
"Ooooh, well excuuuuuse me for just being curious, asshole! I was just wondering why the author did this, that's all."
"Sigh… more accepting these reviews… they'll resolve it. They're grown adults… they'll work it out, even though this is the internet and no one resolves anything."
"Oh, you gotta be kidding me. You have GOT to be kidding me. Why is this certain franchise in the story? I hate it with a passion!"
"Hey, maybe if you paid attention, you would have known it was foreshadowed. Ya know, you're being a real baby over nothing. So get over it."
"I'm the baby? What? I'm not the one confronting people over this."
"Well, maybe you shouldn't review at all because I hate how you review because you suck."
"It'll get better… it has to be."
"Oh my god, will you STOP hurting Dimentio this way! He's done nothing wrong!"
"NOTHING WRONG?! Are you even listening to yourself?! He's made Paper Ruby's life a living hell, he dunked Ruby into the Phazon, he made Kokoro cry, he's done so many things that it's because Chiaki had to take his powers away because everyone was tired of his bullshit. Maybe if you would stop sucking Dimentio's dick along with the rest of you Dimentio simps, you'd actually see the reason why."
"Extra extra! Read all about it! World War Five Hundred is happening in Nan's reviews yet again! In one corner, we got cry babies and the other corner, we got more cry babies! Will it ever end? Not really, but we all enjoy the popcorn!"
"Nan, what do you gotta say about this?"
"NO! Don't drag me into this again! I just want to write in peace and… uuuuugh… forget it, I'm going to play Splatoon." Nan got up and walked out with a grumble.
"Hmm?" Ibuki peeked in. "...Oh gosh, not again."
"What's all the ruckus?" Sarge asked as he took a look. "Hmm! Seems like another argument between scumbags again."
"Poor Nan-chan… all he wants to do is write in peace. Sure he frequently checks his email for reviews and is met with… this." Ibuki mumbled.
"You know what we should do?"
"Cheer him up?"
"Well, that too! Buuuuut, I say we make a PSA over these here reviews because clearly, they're making our boy grumpy!"
"...But we already did a review PSA in Chibi!"
"Never hurts to revitalize it!" Sarge said. "Now then, where are Xena and Nyx? We gotta get them straightened up pronto! Ibuki, you go make our author boy happy again. I'm gonna set this right for pete's sake!"
"Good luck, it's probably not gonna end well." Ibuki said.
"Well, if it doesn't, we'll have a good laugh about it! Now then…" Sarge pumped his shotgun. "Xena! Nyx! Get your keisters here on the double, we got a PSA to do!"
BGM: Blood Gulch Blues (Red vs Blue)
PSA: Reviewing Etiquette Redux
"...Didn't we already do this?" Nyx asked as they approached.
"Well, yes, but that was in the Chibiverse! Not to mention it's buried deep within that story that I don't think anyone remembers it. There's like two hundred chapters in that there story and tons of chibis too! …Let's not forget about that MCU one that fried our boy's brain!"
"Fair enough. So let's get this thing started then. …Can we change the music to something else? This is a bit distracting." Xena requested.
"Oh! Certainly." Sarge said.
End BGM
BGM: Route 201 - Day (Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl)
"Much better!"
"Now then… let's take this from the top." Nyx cleared her throat. "Hey, I'm Nyx Shadow from the popular fanfiction series, Super RWBY Sisters."
"And I'm Xena Ayami from the same series… and this-" Yagami hopped out of her body. "Is my other half, best friend, partner in crime… Yagami Ayami."
"Sup!" She waved.
"And I'm Sarge from the popular web series Red vs Blue! And today… we're settin' our foot down because this is getting ridiculous. That's right, we're redoing Reviewing Etiquette from the Chibi series! Because again… that thing is buried so deep in there, you'll probably have to dig your way to China to get to it."
"So let's see… where do we even begin…" Nyx rubbed her head. "Ah yes, reviewing in general. You see, people are free to share their opinions on the internet and… there are lot of people who would love to throw their two cents at these opinions, and then there are those scumbags who think they're on top of the world."
"Wahahahahahaha! Look at this clown doing something he thinks is amazing! I'm gonna tell him that he's dreaming!" Wario laughed.
Luigi looked in the comments. "Awww…"
Confessional - Luigi
"I decided to take up juggling. I'm pretty great at it! …Some people don't think so though."
"I think you're amazing, babe!"
"Aww…" Luigi perked up.
Confessional - Chiaki
"And this is why I don't look at comments. It's all too depressing…"
End Confessional
"And with that, there are those who want to let their opinions be known in fanfiction stories. People create tons of stories with their own imaginations. They're letting their imagination soar!" Nyx said. "Let them create what they want to create! Sure, some ideas are a bit iffy, but with constructive criticism, they can rework it and let it flow better."
"Yeah, like with our boy Nan's stories. There's like… a lot of 'em!" Xena said. "He takes that constructive criticism and proceeds to make stuff even more awesome! …Sorry, that's a bit of a bias we have." She sheepishly rubbed her cheek.
"But she's right! Our author boy has got a healthy fandom where people praise, give their own thoughts and throw in their own suggestions if they want to be a part of it." Sarge said. "Unfortunately, every fandom has got their own gremlins and our boy is no exception. It's inevitable… the one percent that loves to make everyone miserable!"
"Ugh, don't remind me…" Nyx mumbled. "Look, it's great to interact and such, but come on people, you're better than this! If you wanna argue, argue like adults or better yet, make an account and settle it in a PM. Reviews aren't meant for arguing… unless you want to call someone out who's a total piece of crap."
"That reminds me of this one guy who worshipped the hell out of our boy. I think it was when Partners in Time was still in development." Sarge said.
"Oh god…" Yagami shivered.
"How did it go again? Something about "How dare you criticize Nan. How dare you make your presence known! What Nan writes is perfect and you are all insects to his giant ass boot where he will SQUISH YOU if you dare to even think against him!" or something like that. Paraphrasing!"
"...Yeah, don't be like that folks. You make yourself look like a simp, not to mention you make yourself look stupid."
"What! How dare this person insult my queen! You are all insects to Salem's boot and she will throttle you if you disrespect-" Tyrian paused, scratching his head. "...Why do I feel like I've done this before?"
"I wonder how our boy's doing…" Sarge wondered.
Meanwhile…
"Look, I love my fandom and all, but this one percent is driving me crazy. All the argumentative guest reviews that I keep accepting because I keep thinking people will eventually grow a pair and get civilized for once. Not to mention there are people attacking a reader because how dare they write a different ending to Inside Story. They attack others because how dare someone had an opinion-"
"Deep breaths, big guy!" Ibuki put her hands on his shoulders. "Deep breaths."
"Agh… sorry… sometimes I just gotta vent."
"That's fine. Ibuki just hopes that you won't go… loonier than looney."
"Oh believe me, I'm far from that. If I take a break because of these boneheads, none of the stories will ever get done at this point."
Back with the quad…
"Probably venting. Can't say I blame him." Nyx said.
"That's another thing!" Sarge exclaimed. "Why attack fellow readers or reviewers like this? There are people behind those screens and I'm pretty sure you too are making their lives miserable. Nothing gets accomplished from that."
"Here's what we'd do. If a reviewer makes you mad, for some bizarre reason, just take the time to write a review and then ask yourselves: Is it meaningful? Is it helpful for Nan? Is it hilarious that will definitely make the guy smile or laugh? Does it drag down others because you didn't like what a reviewer said? If you said no to the first three questions and yes to the last question…" Xena shook her head. "Then you have got to reevaluate it because goodness gracious, we don't need that."
"Oh, and let's not forget some of these reviewers drag him into the argument. You think that's helpful?" Yagami rolled her eyes. "It annoys him that he feels obligated that he has to stop what he's doing and give his opinion over the matter. It doesn't help anyone, people!"
"Done!" Sarge exclaimed.
"...Huh?" Nyx looked at Sarge. "What did you…?"
"Oh, I just wrote a guest review myself! But I didn't send it yet." Sarge said. "Here's what it says:"
"Attention dirtbags! I know you people are very vocal about certain things in this series and while it is commendable, is it downright disgusting! You people make me sick. You are worse than blues… or maybe you ARE a blue! Anyway you look at it, it's downright despicable. I say it's time we put a stop to this before things get so out of hand that I will have to take drastic measures!"
"Now read this carefully!" Sarge said. "Does it say anything about the story at all? Of course not! You might want to take a hard look at yourselves and ask: "Why the hell am I attacking this person?". Seriously, it wouldn't hurt to scroll on by and don't even worry about it. Go about your day!"
"Yeah, like criticism is fine and all, but there's no need to go all dogpile on this one reviewer just because he said something he didn't completely like." Nyx said. "By the way, thank you, Sarge."
"No problem! Now let me just delete this and-... uh oh."
"What's wrong?" Yagami asked.
"I just accidentally sent it!"
"...Where did it get sent?" Nyx asked.
"Gaiden! Eh, I'm sure it'll be fine."
Meanwhile…
An email notification kicked in on Nan's phone where Ibuki swiftly grabbed it and took a look. "Pffft! Dammit Sarge-chan…"
"What is it?" Nan asked as Ibuki showed him it. "Pffft! Nice… I'm sure he didn't mean to send it though."
Inkling dying noises
Wipeout!
"Woo! Reefslider bowling! You gotta love it!"
Back with the quad…
The Ayami twins and Nyx sweatdropped. "Ooookay." Nyx rolled her eyes. "Oh, and let's take a moment on some reviews regarding… paragraph hell. Like, seriously… if you just got to the point as quick as you can in just a few lines, then I'm sure Nan would appreciate it."
"Not to mention… he'll just skip over it if it's several paragraphs long." Xena said. "Seriously… does an idea have to be five blocky paragraphs long because we seriously doubt it's because you wanted to be "as short as possible". Honey, that ain't short."
"He'll Too Long; Didn't Read it and go about his day. Simple as that, people!" Sarge said. "Oh, right, and let's not forget about the character simps."
"Oh Oum, those guys…" Yagami groaned. "Yes, people, we get it but Dimentio deserved it after what he did with Paper Ruby!"
Confessional - Dimentio
"I'm just having an off season. I'll be back in no time and I'll definitely be the pleaser of all crowds! …And gamer girl, if you are listening to this, I will make your life a living hell AND I WILL MAKE SURE TO BEAT YOU WITH AN INCH OF YOUR LIFE JUST TO PROVE A POINT THAT YOU CAN'T KEEP ME DOWN FOR LONG! I'LL MAKE SURE TO MAKE YOUR LIFE MISERABLE! YOU HEAR ME?! I AM THE PLEASER OF CROWDS AND I WILL MAKE SURE YOU RUE THE DAY. You know that saying when "life gives you lemons"? Honey… I WILL GIVE YOU COMBUSTIBLE LEMONADE THAT WILL MAKE YOUR STOMACH EXPLODE AND I WILL MAKE SURE-"
We are experiencing technical difficulties, please stand by
Confessional - Cave Johnson
Cave blinked. "...Maybe making the combustible lemons was a bad idea."
Confessional - Maid Ridley
"...Yikes." Ridley said as he could still hear Dimentio rant. "And they say I have issues!"
"AND ANOTHER THING-"
End confessional
"Sooo, in conclusion, let's all just be nice and civilized in the reviews." Nyx said. "There is no need to be argumentative. Let's keep our cool and be chill. And let's not drag Nan into your arguments. It's completely unnecessary."
"Yeah, let's all just keep a cool head!" Sarge said.
"Anyway, I'm Nyx Shadow."
"We're Xena and Yagami!"
"And this has been Sarge… see you next time!"
End BGM
"Alright… if you guys will excuse me, I'm gonna go get ready for my next scene in Forgotten Land."
"We'll join you!" Xena said as she and Yagami walked off.
"...I think I'll stay here just a bit longer. Might as well post this chapter for him. Let me just type something in the Author's Note real quick."
Sarge: Okay, uh... how do I do this? Uh... okay, does he usually put it in bold... Because I think he does. Oh hey! This looks a lot better. Anyway, I just want to say that-
"Hey! What are you doing?"
Sarge: Uh oh! Gotta go! *runs off*
Oh, a PSA was written for me? Aww, thanks. Anywho... guys? I love this fandom and I love you all with all my heart. You guys are amazing! ...But can we PLEASE keep down the arguments and stop dragging me into things? It's driving me a little crazy...
